[Correspondence cf Buz STar.] San Francisco, July15, 1881. On the Fourth of July we started for the Pa- cific eoast—my son and myself. There was a pall, as of midnight darkness, hanging over the nation. As we sped westward, all along the line of travel, there were anxious hearts, bushed and eager questionings, sorrow-worn countenances, and illy-concealed anathemas against the perpe- trator of so atrocious a crime as that which sent a thrill of agony through the national heart. There was a funereal sadness apparent every- where. The poet's thought was verified in our country’s orzanic life: ‘Break but one Of a thousand keys, and the paining Jar Through ail wil run,” President Garfield, in this mighty afflietion, has broken the alabaster box of national aiTec- tion, and the fragrance of the oiutment has been scattered abro: He has been anoitted with tie prayers and tears ofga united people for his | recovel ind return to his great work.

Neither pen nor pencil could do justice to such n stic beauty. Just as far as the eye can reach, saow-tipped moun- | tains rear their lofty, glittering heads, defiant alike of sunshine and of storm. Grand old pa- triarchs are they, with all their numerous pro- | geny of children, grandchildren and great-crand- | children following hard after them until the proud old monarchs of mountains melt away into infantile, erass-covered hillocks, and finaMy spread themselys fut into velvety law dolent of perfume and flowers, and musical the voices of dane’ rooks from the mounta born, that go ehrirr: very feet.

There is nothing of the provin- eial town about San Francisco. All is bustle, activity, driving, pushing, dashing life. Str@egers receive a cordial welcome. New comers are regarded with favor. It is essenti- ally a cosmopolitan city, and to be cosmopoli- tan is to be gencrous. The Palace Hotel, at which we are stopping, isa great caravansary, a world in miniature. It isa grand monument to William Ralston, whose memory will ever remain green in the hearts of the people of San Francisco. Open-handed hospitality is a con- spicuous virtue in these parts. There seems to be no counterfeit about it. It is of the genuine order. It is a capital thing to have in the houee —this open-handed hospitality. It has a hint of better things about it. THE CABLE ROADS. To me the cable reads are one of the most in- teresting features of the city. They go charging up the tremendous hills, like things of life, and with far less effort. One keeps wondering how they go. I sympathize with the amazement of the bewildered Chinaman who rode on one of these strect cars for the first time. Hisface was alive with astonishment. He pecred out of one end of the car and then the other. He looked this side and that side. He turned an exploring gaze on the conductor. He seemed ready to burst with compressed wonder. In his utter bewilderment he finally broke in the follow- hg exhaustive announcement fo _hossee, no pullee, no pushee—go like——1” ete. That Chinaman will never rest till he inventsa cable road for the Celestial Empire. A STROLL THROUGH CHINATOWN. Chaperoned by Rey. A. W. Loomis, D.D., the honored missionary of the Presbyterian board, who has devoted a lifetime to the Chinese, we explored the inner depths of Chinatown. We saw all sorts of homes. We caw the typical Christian home in the very heart of the Chinese quarter. There is a very interesting school car- ried on for Chinese children in the old Globe Hotel, on the corner of Jackson and Dupont streets. This school has been in operation eleven years, and several of the recond generation are now pupils inthe school. The children seem bright, eager, patient, facile, obedient, industri- ous. They speak English well. They write ad- mirably. ‘They tothe average American child in the ordinary branches of a primary Eng- lish education. They are well instructed religi- ously. They seem to have an intelligent idea of God and of goodness. They sing their songs with great fervor, but their tones are not of se- raphic sweetness. They make up in ardor what they lack in aap 6 Thisis the very best method of getting at the Chinese. The hope of THE CMINESE CONSULATE. We visited the Chinese Consulate. Col. Bee, the American Consul, is a man of great suavity, and kindness of manner, and proffered us every courtesy. “Although the days of mourning for the Empress are not yet ended, we were privileged.an introduction to the Chi- nese Consul Gel & very dignified and genial man, and a member of the First Presb: terian Church of San Francisco. On leaming we were from Washington, his first inquiries were concerning the President, and he proffered us the Bulietin Bxtra,in Chinese, which is published every day and scattered broadcast through the Chinese quarter, giving full and constant de- tails concerning the well-doing of the President. A fine wood-cut of President Garfield illumines the Extra. It is scarcely worth while to go into further details coneerding Chinatown. much has already been written on the subject, that it would be.like carrying coals to Newcastle. THE TYPIGS% CALIFORNIAN. From my observation, it seems to me the typ!- eal Californian is Jarge-hearted, generous, and easy to be entreated. The rude experiences of early days has begotten within him the spirit of Kindliness. The fostering of many benevolent institutions here, proves this. The Masonic, Odd Fellow and‘ kindred orders are in a flourish- condition. Church asylums, orph: a relief abound. ‘We heat cheerful taninons ORE oe ee charitable sehool is a noble vision youth who lack ital pro wayward parent bpractical » | of their ne’ 2 in their gambols at our | fyi h Hingsand maminoth | 5, the childsen are many ef them clothed. and all of them are lunched every . This class of children live in the “ ‘oast”—the Five Potats of San Francisco. at is most note- yorthy in regard to this great work is the fact that these 200 little hapless waifs have been gathered and grouped and trained by the efforts of a single Bible class, in Calvary sbyterian Chureh, under the charge of Mrs. Cooper, who accompanied us in this interesting visit. Mrs. Cooper has for the past eight or ten years pre-, tonal Report of the state of Califernia for the Bureau of Education at Wash- fon, Commissioner Eaton having secured her services during his visit to the Pacific coast sev- eral years ago. This deyoted and earnest €hris- tian woman ousin of Col. Robert G. Inger- soll, to whom Reo is greatly attached, and, like him, she is the champion and friend of helplessand hapless childhood. Nearly €3,00Qyhas. been freely donated during the past’ yar to. this work, which is carried on by this remarkable Bible’ class. This is practical piety, practical benevolence. The young ladies of the class assist the trained kindergarten teachers every day. They also make the clothes needed. The Bible class numbers some two or throe hundred. enrolled members of both sexes, in ages ranging from 16 to 80 years. Itis scarcely to be won- dered at that a pastor who fellowships such ty as this hears such loud calls from of the east. A religion that has future world, but nothing for for either. FRUITS VEGETABLES AND FLOWERS. What a dMuge of fruit! The markets are gorged, overburdened, inundated, and the over- flow fills every street corner. Wagons are ping over with it.

Correspondence of Tire EVENING Star.J “Warm Spri ” Va., July 21, 1881. This celebrated resort is situated in a beauti- ful valley, at the head of one of the branches of the Jackson river, and is the county seat of Bath Va. Visitors from Washington can reach it by taking the Virginia Midland route to Gordons- ville, or the B. & O. via Valley Branch to Staun- ton, at each of which places close connections are made with the Chesapeake and Ohio road to Millsboro, and thence by carriages fifteen miles, over a fine road, and through a lovely country to the springs, THE CLIMATE AND THE BATHS, The climate here is delightful, the thermome- ter now averaging about 70 degrees F. during the daytime, and it is cool enough at night to make a pair of blankets quite a necessity. The baths are the great attraction of the place, and must be once enjoyed to be thoroughly appre- ciated. There are two larce swimming pools, each some forty or fifty feet in diameter, one for ladies, of the temperature of 98 F., and it is elaimed that persons suffering from rheumatism and many other ills find relief, and sometimes cure, in these wonderful waters. Horseback-riding, rambling over the adjacent hills, hunting, fishing. flirting, etc., form the amusements of the day, while at night the young folks promenade, dance, or sometimes can be seen in pairs, quietly nestling in some shady cor- ner, talking ‘of—well, what did we talk of, and our fathers and mothers and grandfathers and grandmothers before us?—while the elders look on and quietly and thoughtfully discuss the crops, our wounded President, readjusters, fund- ers, etc. A word just here: I have been in this country ten days, and I have heard naught but the most hearty expressions of sympathy with the President on every side, and earnest wishes for his recovery. In both of the churches here (Episco} and Presbyterian) fervent prayers were offered hod ee in = behalf, and the newspapers, including Tus Star, are eager; sought after for news of his condition. us HOW WE LIVE. ‘There is a fine farm of several hundred acres belonging to the springs property which is util- ized by the proprietor to produce supplies for the table, among which are noticed a fine herd of mileh cows, three hundred young turkeys and an abundance of spring chickens, such as are read about but seldom seen. The large garden of four acres furnishes us with a plentiful sup- ply of fresh vegetables. The cuisine is excellent ‘and bountifully served. PERSONAL.
